Rewind disappears

Hey, if this is in the wrong spot or if this topic already exists, sorry. I’m finding that while playing FH4, sometimes my Rewind function stops working. I’ll press the button (Y on xbox) but nothing happens. It’s as if it’s turned off. I checked and made sure it wasn’t. The fix I found was to restart the game BUT I’m having to restart after every couple races. Between 2-4 races to be exact. Why is this happening? I noticed it months and months ago but since the new Lego expansion was dropped this issue has kicked up a notch. Hope a device finds this and can either help explain it or to let us know if a fix is in the works. Thanks for everyone’s time. :slight_smile: have an awesome race day!

If a car crosses the finish line it turns it off.

This issue has NOTHING to do with a car crossing the finish line, it’s completely random. Happened to me in one of the three races from this week’s street scene championship, and I was in first, about halfway through when I found it out. Restarted that race and checked rewind, still no joy, but worked in every other championship race.

OK.

I’ve had this problem too, just in freeroam, have to restart game to fix.

can confirm this was a very frequent issue back when I was playing earlier in the year. Was very common to be blocked from rewinding at all during forza lives, specifically on dangersigns with very lumpy and awkward run ups. Hit a lump brush the side post and have the jump invalidated, mash rewind for half a minute or more… nothing. Have to drive/fast travel back to the start and try again. Existence tax

This isnt a new issue, kinda disheartening to learn its STILL a thing

Happens to me as well. It first appeared after one of the updates a month or so back.

It’s been happening since launch. Gotten worse for me since the new expac drop. [Mod Edit - Abbreviated profanity, profanity and profanity that is disguised but still alludes to the words are not permitted - D]. It’s happen to me three times (three separate races) this morning. I was in first each time and hadnt crossed any finish lines yet.

Restarting the race didn’t help, I had to actually quit the activity, then go back and restart the series.

Ridiculous.

Truth. It’s just yet another bug that hasn’t been fixed, and possibly won’t be either. But we do get other fixes though, such as butchered music tracks. :thinking: :roll_eyes:

Happens a lot lately, completely random too. Sometimes I have to close out the game and restart to get it working again.

The most times I came across this problem are if I drive a car with a custom livery (or I am near the finish line). I have 100% finished of the game - with a factory paint car I never had a problem to rewind - naturally with the exception being near the finish line….

there’s been a few threads in the support section about it, but nothing has been done about it since release

It is there at least from FH3 if not older. Don’t expect any improvement there, to deep in code.

Code is divided into subroutines, and the subroutines are named, so rewind can be called ‘Rewind’, and you have a search button, so it should be fixable.

I consider that memory/playback management is certainly in the engine used by the game so that the developers we still have on FH4 are not able/allowed to go deep in such. Then I consider the last stream one guy saying that adding a menu proposing to skip duplicate was an actual challenge + consider it is already done in FH3.

I conclude, I don’t expect much about that subject.

I feel guilty for rewinding any kind of stunt, or test even just to go back to the beginning… I can’t do it, I can’t let myself slip into any kind of dismissive behaviour.

Happens to me as well, most often in community or seasonal championships. Only workaround seems to be quitting and restarting the championship in a different order.

Yea happens to me also. Been there since day 1
